Abstract
A multi-channel audio system including first combining circuitry, for combining a first spectral band of a first plurality channels to provide a first bass audio signal stream; second combining circuitry, for combining the first spectral band of a second plurality channels to provide a second bass audio signal stream; and third combining circuitry, for combining a second spectral band, the second spectral band including lower frequencies than the first spectral band, of the first plurality of channels and the second plurality of channels to provide a third bass audio signal stream.
Claims39
In an audio system having a plurality of input channels, a method for processing audio signals comprising:
- a first combinatorial processing of a first group of said plurality channels to provide a first bass audio signal stream including frequencies in a first spectral band;
- a second combinatorial processing of a second group of said plurality of channels to provide a second bass audio signal stream including frequencies in said first spectral band;
- and
- a third combinatorial processing of said plurality of channels to provide a third bass audio signal stream including frequencies in a second spectral band, said second spectral band including lower frequencies than said first spectral band.
